History As Drama: The Transit of a ‘Cold War’ Liberal  

by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.

Lyndon LaRouche comments on a review of Richard Hofstadter: An Intellectual Biography, by David S. Brown. “It was the ‘consensus’ Liberalism of Hofstadter’s generation,” LaRouche writes, “which allowed our nation to be lured into that echo of the Peloponnesian War which was the U.S. War in Indo-China. It was the so-called ‘Cold War Liberalism’ which infected the relatively advantaged spawn of the ‘White Collar’ and ‘Organization Man’ generation, and which has, thus, given the world the asymmetric-warfare nightmare now spreading from the former nightmare of the Indo-China war, into, and beyond the cockpits of Southwest Asia today.”
